ie8 javascript not running or loading

Tags:

I have un-installed and re-installed IE8 a few time and javascript will not run. I have checked jQuery and numerous sites, and run simple examples like alert("hi"); nothing works. The ie8 developer tools under script debugging says

"Breakpoint cannot be set in this location, the code in the document is not loaded"

This also happens when using the Spoon plugin and IE7 Or IE8.

also any of these scripts work just fine in firefox.

Any ideas or help is much appreciated!
